MetaMaus
NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD WINNER • Visually and emotionally rich, MetaMaus is as groundbreaking as the masterpiece whose creation it reveals • Featured in the documentary Art Spiegelman: Disaster Is My Muse In the pages of MetaMaus, Art Spiegelman re-enters the Pulitzer Prize–winning Maus, the modern classic that has altered how we see literature, comics, and the Holocaust ever since it was first published decades ago. He probes the questions that Maus most often evokes—Why the Holocaust? Why mice? Why comics?—and gives us a new and essential work about the creative process. Compelling and intimate, MetaMaus is poised to become a classic in its own right.

Maus I: Relato de un sobreviviente. Mi padre sangra historia / Maus I: A Survivo r's Tale: My Father Bleeds History
Ganadora del Premio Pulitzer 1992 Maus nos cuenta la historia de Vladek Spiegelman, un judío superviviente del Holocausto, y de su hijo, un historietista que intenta reconciliarse con su padre, con la terrible historia de este y con la mismísima Historia. La forma de este relato, un cómic (donde los nazis son gatos y los judíos, ratones), logra desposeernos de cualquier atisbo de cercanía que podamos tener con los hechos que aquí se refieren, y lo consigue precisamente porque se acerca a lo inefable empleando formas diminutivas. Como ha señalado el New York Times Book Review, este libro es «un formidable hito, que aporta el detalle de un documental y la viveza de una novela… un suceso literario de primer orden». A medio camino entre Polonia y Rego Park, en Nueva York, Maus detalla dos historias poderosas: la primera es el relato de cómo el padre de Spiegelman y su esposa sobrevivieron a la Europa de Hitler, una narración espeluznante llena de incontables encontronazos con la muerte, de escapatorias improbables y de sentimiento de terror ante la posibilidad del arresto y la traición; la segunda trata de la relación tortuosa que el autor mantiene con su padre en la vejez, en un intento de llevarse bien con él y que, sin embargo, está trufado de pequeñas discusiones y visitas intermitentes, mientras al fondo acecha un legado histórico tan gigantesco que impide ningún tipo de sosiego. A todos los niveles, este es el relato definitivo de un superviviente… y también el de los hijos que, de algún modo, tienen que sobrevivir a los supervivientes. La parte I de Maus nos conduce, de la mano de los padres de Spiegelman, hasta las puertas de Auschwitz, y asimismo nos arrima al abatimiento que siente su hijo. Hay que dejar atrás nuestras ideas preconcebidas. Estos gatos y estos ratones no son Tom y Jerry, sino algo muy diferente. Esto es un nuevo tipo de literatura. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The bestselling first installment of the graphic novel acclaimed as “the most affecting and successful narrative ever done about the Holocaust” (Wall Street Journal) and “the first masterpiece in comic book history” (The New Yorker) PULITZER PRIZE WINNER One of Variety’s “Banned and Challenged Books Everyone Should Read” A brutally moving work of art —widely hailed as the greatest graphic novel ever written— Maus recounts the chilling experiences of the author’s father during the Holocaust, with Jews drawn as wide-eyed mice and Nazis as menacing cats. Maus is a haunting tale within a tale, weaving the author’s account of his tortured relationship with his aging father into an astonishing retelling of one of history''s most unspeakable tragedies. It is an unforgettable story of survival and a disarming look at the legacy of trauma.

Maus I y II (Spanish Edition)

release date: Jun 23, 2015
Maus I y II (Spanish Edition)
Maus es la biografía de Vladek Spiegelman, un judío polaco superviviente de los campos de exterminio nazis, contada a través de su hijo Art, un dibujante de cómics que quiere dejar memoria de la aterradora persecución que sufrieron millones de personas en la Europa sometida por Hitler y de las consecuencias de este sufrimiento en la vida cotidiana de las generaciones posteriores. Apartándose de las formas de literatura creadas hasta la publicación de Maus, Art Spiegelman se aproxima al tema del Holocausto de un modo absolutamente renovador, y para ello relata la experiencia de su propia familia en forma de memoria gráfica, utilizando todos los recursos estilísticos y narrativos tradicionales de este género y, a la vez, inventando otros nuevos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A story of a Jewish survivor of Hitler''s Europe and his son, a cartoonist who tries to come to terms with his father''s story and history itself. Its form, the cartoon (the Nazis are cats, the Jews mice), succeeds perfectly in shocking us out of any lingering sense of familiarity with the events described, approaching, as it does, the unspeakable through the diminutive. Genuinely tragic and comic by turns, it attains a complexity of theme and a precision of thought new to comics and rare in any medium. Mausties together two powerful stories: Vladek''s harrowing take of survival against all odds, delineating the paradox of family life in the death camps, and the author''s account of his tortured relationship with his aging father. At every level this is the ultimate survivor''s tale—and that too of the children who somehow survive even the survivors

Co-Mix
"Designed with Mr. Spiegelman’s help, [Co-Mix] has the tall, narrow proportions of Raw...its images form a chronological sampling of Mr. Spiegelman’s extraordinary imagination, including his precocious early work, underground comics, preparatory notes and sketches for Maus, indelible covers for The New Yorker, lithographic efforts and much else."—New York Times In an art career that now spans six decades, Art Spiegelman has been a groundbreaking and influential figure with a global impact. His Pulitzer Prize-winning holocaust memoir Maus established the graphic novel as a legitimate form and inspired countless cartoonists while his shorter works have enormously expanded the expressive range of comics. Co-Mix: A Retrospective of Comics, Graphics, and Scraps is a comprehensive career overview of the output of this legendary cartoonist, showing for the first time the full range of a half-century of relentless experimentation. Starting from Spiegelman's earliest self-published comics and lavishly reproducing graphics from a host of publications both obscure and famous, Co-Mix provides a guided tour of an artist who has continually reinvented not just comics but also made a mark in book and magazine design, bubble gum cards, lithography, modern dance, and most recently stained glass. By showing all facets of Spiegelman's career, the book demonstrates how he has persistently cross-pollinated the worlds of comics, commercial design, and fine arts. Essays by acclaimed film critic J. Hoberman and MoMA curator and Dean of the Yale University School of Art Robert Storr bookend Co-Mix, offering eloquent meditations on an artist whose work has been genre-defining.

Jack and the Box
"This comic gem of a picture book demonstrates Spiegelman's ability to conquer his audience, no matter its constituents...This book choreographs jokes with an exquisite understanding of climax and denouement. As with the other books from this publisher, the design is sophisticated, making elegant use of panels, and easy-to-handle small format and subtle, low-contrast hues. That the vocabulary and the matchup of dialogue balloons to the action are geared to beginning readers is icing on the cake."—Publishers Weekly Jack just got a new toy, and it’s full of surprises. Each time the box pops open, there’s a new and bigger surprise. Is it a silly toy, a scary toy... or something else entirely?
